How it works

Four steps, start to strategy.

From the first conversation to a prioritized action plan — with no re-entering of information that already appears in the student's documents.

Step 01

Introductory meeting

A 60-minute meeting with the student and parent.

Get to know the student, their interests and university goals
Discuss current plans, priorities and concerns
Gather context that may not appear in academic documents
Explain the audit process and next steps
Step 02

Document upload & intake

The student receives a secure shared folder — existing materials are simply dragged and dropped in:

Transcripts and grading-scale information
SAT, ACT, English-language and AP score reports
Activities or athletics résumé
Current university list
Existing application materials, if available

A short intake form collects only what the documents don't already show:

Academic and career interests
Work or volunteer experience not shown elsewhere
Potential recommenders
Citizenship and visa status
Financial-aid needs
Early Decision or other application preferences

The student never re-enters information already shown on transcripts, score reports or résumé.

Step 03

Comprehensive application audit

The written audit is delivered within two weeks after all requested documents and intake information have been received.

Assessment of the student's academic and extracurricular profile
Identification of application strengths, gaps and priorities
Review of up to 15 US universities for fit and list balance
Early Decision, Early Action and Regular Decision strategy
International financial-aid and merit-scholarship considerations
CSS Profile and affordability considerations
Recommender and application-positioning guidance
A prioritized action plan and recommended next steps
Step 04

Audit review & Q&A

A 90-minute meeting with the student and parent.

Review the audit findings and recommendations
Discuss university-list and application strategy
Work through Early Decision and affordability considerations
Answer questions related to the audit and application strategy
Confirm the student's priorities and next steps
